Monash University Lab and Workshop Inspection Checklist
This Monash University inspection checklist helps ensure safe, compliant laboratory and workshop operations within Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. It covers documentation and training records, emergency preparedness (showers, eye wash, extinguishers, first aid), ergonomic and environmental conditions, chemical storage and handling (labeling, segregation, spill kits, gas cylinders, cryogenics), PPE availability and signage, specific hazards (biological, ionising radiation, UV, lasers with controls and eye protection), electrical and machinery safety (tagging, guarding, emergency stops, isolation), fume cupboard standards, refrigeration use, housekeeping and waste management, and self-audit. Use it to identify issues, record actions, and maintain a safe learning and research environment.
